November ANC1A Election Will Have Three Competitive Races.
Yesterday was the deadline to turn in nominating petitions for those wanting to be on the ballot in the November Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner races. Based on information from the Board of Elections posted this morning, the following are the candidates that will be on the ballot (presuming there are no successful challenges to qualifying signatures).
Based on the chart above, eight Single Member Districts have uncontested races. These are listed below:
- 1A02 — Vickey A. Wright-Smith (former 1A Commissioner)
- 1A03 — Zach Rybarczyk
- 1A04 — Sadaf Megan Mortezavi
- 1A05 — Christine Miller (incumbent)
- 1A06 — Richard Dubeshter (incumbent)
- 1A08 — Kent Boese (incumbent)
- 1A09 — Bobby Holmes (incumbent)
- 1A12 — Margaret Hundley (incumbent)
Three Single Member Districts have two candidates that will be on the ballot. These are:
- 1A01 — Valarie Baron & Ernest Johnson
- 1A07 — Sharon Farmer & Darwain Frost (incumbent)
- 1A10 — Amanda Frost & Rashida Brown (incumbent)
One Single Member District is open, with no candidates on the November ballot. This seat could easily be won by any interested write-in candidate.
- 1A11 — open
The map below shows where the Single Member Districts are located.

No one is running in 1A11 or 1B10? No wonder we’re getting hosed so badly in the Bruce Monroe debacle.

I hope we can do a little bit better than that. 🙂

I thought that 1A04 was a competitive race, too. What happeend to the incumbent ANC commish?

I thought someone was running against Bobby Holmes — I can’t remember her name but I’ve seen her out collecting signatures
